I have detected ground fault issues in 7 of my 14 outlets in the residence, apartment 25. And I detected numerous ground fault issues in apartment 29 as well. My cat found this issue on the night of September 6 after scent spraying a power outlet. The breaker failed to prevent an overload, a fire started, and I had to manually throw the breaker myself to kill power to the malfunctioning outlet. I believe the landlord is cognizant of the issue as one of the 3 replaced outlets was never discussed as damaged or of issue.
Reserve on Third property management is refusing to fix ovens that catch fire, fire alarms that continuously go off and just tell residents to hit the silence button and electric is coming and going - shorting out. This is after multiple complaints for almost 2 years. Particularly building 11 as I can not speak for all, but I feel that inspections need to happen for resident safety.
I appreciate the progress on this squatter / fire hazard, but will simply boarding up the place solve the problem of homeless squatters using this as a bicycle chop shop? Is there anything else we can do to evict them from tearing off the plywood and squatting again? I get legal BS, but let's accelerate this and fix it. This place has been a fire hazard and theft / stripyard for years. The homeless is this area at 7AM, sitting between Grimes and Rallys, waiting to prey again - is a f'ing joke waiting to deal with privately. Do something.
The Woods at Latimer apartment complex has smoke detectors in units that are up to 10 years expired. Included photo are ones removed from our unit. Maintenance claims to only replace them when residents request, since "they still work" and "It's easier to leave old ones up than go into every unit and put new ones in". When batteries in these expired ones died, we alerted maintenance and they said to take them out and just "not start a fire" overnnight, as they would be out to replace them in the morning since it wasn't considered an emergency to not have working smoke detectors in the unit.
Union @ Crescent Apartments 1110 N Crescent Rd, Bloomington, IN 47404, USA They have removed the handles from the outside doors to the apartments. It has been like this for over a month now. I see this as posing a potential fire/safety issue.
My address is technically 1529 W. 8th. We recently purchased our home and just got all moved in. In between my house and our neighbors, there is a ton of overgrowth over power lines connected to our homes. We really need someone to come out and clear the area before it becomes a problem. There is also a very large and what seems like a very dead tree on our neighbors property that is over some power lines as well.
